  • FIG. 1 1 is a simplified block diagram illustrating several sample aspects of components that may be employed in a user device configured to provide spatial interaction with an augmented reality scene, as taught herein.
  • a user device has multiple coordinate systems: an object-to-device coordinate system (for an object space), a hand- to-device coordinate system (for a control space), and a virtual cursor coordinate system (for cursor space).
  • the user device acquires translational and rotational movements of a user hand and/or translational and rotational movements of the user device itself to control movement of a "virtual hand" or a "virtual cursor” in three dimensions (3D).
  • the virtual cursor may then interact with the augmented reality (AR) scene. Because a user hand may have twenty-seven degrees of freedom, more options for mapping coordinates between coordinate system may be provided to control movement of the virtual cursor.

  • Interpretation of the finger posture allows for switching between the GoGo mechanism (open Hand) and the Magic Hand mechanism (index finger pointing).
  • Interpretation of the gesture and/or posture detections for fingers also allows for distinguishing between selection and manipulation.
  • the GoGo Magic mechanism may interpret a fist as a request to switch between selection provided by the GoGo mechanism and manipulation provided by the Magic Hand mechanism.
  • a Chopsticks mechanism uses the tips of chopsticks to create points that are on one side of the user device.
  • the Chopsticks mechanism also uses the center point of the user device as a cube. The user can then use the Chopsticks to select objects in the augmented reality scene with the tips of the Chopsticks.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé d'interaction spatiale en réalité augmentée (RA) qui comprend l'affichage d'une scène en RA qui comprend une image d'une scène du monde réel, un objet cible virtuel, et un curseur virtuel. Une position du curseur virtuel est prévue selon un premier système de coordonnées au sein de la scène en RA. Un dispositif utilisateur suit une pose du dispositif utilisateur par rapport à la main d'un utilisateur selon un second système de coordonnées. Le second système de coordonnées est mis en correspondance par rapport au premier système de coordonnées pour contrôler les mouvements du curseur virtuel. Dans un premier mode de mise en correspondance, le mouvement du curseur virtuel est contrôlé pour modifier une distance entre le curseur virtuel et l'objet cible virtuel. Dans un second mode de mise en correspondance, le mouvement du curseur virtuel est contrôlé pour manipuler l'objet cible virtuel. Une entrée d'utilisateur est détectée pour contrôler lequel du premier mode de mise en correspondance ou du second mode de mise en correspondance est utilisé.
